Chapter 245 Do You Care?
"Li Yuanbai, Huo Qiqi and the imperial physicians are all in our hands." A hoarse voice came from outside.

The gangster called the third child sneered at Huo Qiqi and said cruelly, "I heard that Huo Qiqi likes to gamble the most in the capital?"

"I haven't been the God of Gamblers for many years." Huo Qiqi replied with a faint smile.

"Mr. Huo Qiqi is indeed not a mortal. He is still so calm as a prisoner. It is really admirable. I just don't know if I can continue to laugh later. Will Li Yuanbai choose you in the end, or food and silver? Haha , it’s really exciting.”

"Can I choose to refuse?" Huo Qiqi asked lazily.

"Idle is idle, wouldn't it be more interesting for Mr. Huo Qi to guess the ending?" The youngest cast his sinister eyes on her.

"If you have to guess, I bet Li Yuanbai will give up on me." Huo Qiqi said without hesitation.

"Master Huo Qi seems to have underestimated himself." The third child sneered.

"If I were Li Yuanbai, I would definitely choose food and silver. Since you have already murdered me, you will definitely not let me walk out of Nanping alive. If Li Yuanbai chooses to compromise, you will take food and silver into the mountains Among them. The terrain of Nanping is complicated, with many mountains and mountains. The garrison masters have been unable to wipe out you in one fell swoop for so many years. As long as you transport food into the mountains, even if Li Yuanbai is the God of War, there is nothing he can do about you. You take me as a hostage, It will naturally take me into the deep mountains. Then I will definitely end up dead. Of course, the people with me in this room, even if they are unlucky, must be buried with me." Huo Qiqi guessed with a smile. Fan. "It's better to keep it than to lose money and people."

"Mr. Huo Qi, why didn't you guess that we let you go because we were afraid of Duke Hu?" The third child asked with narrowed eyes.

"You're not even afraid of Li Yuanbai, but you still fear the Duke Protector's Mansion?" Huo Qiqi asked back, "How about coaxing the child? Since Li Yuanbai can't keep me no matter what he does, of course he will choose food and silver. So, I am unlucky, You will be unlucky too."

"Are all the people in the capital blind?" the third child asked.

"Probably so." Huo Qiqi nodded in approval.

"It is widely rumored in the capital that Mr. Huo Qi, the Duke of the Protector's Mansion, is the number one dude in the capital. He is good at everything except eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. He is just a worthless idiot. Today I realized that the real idiots are those mediocre people " said the third child sarcastically.

"Thank you for the compliment. Actually, I feel the same way. I never feel that I am an idiot, but there is nothing I can do if people don't believe me." Huo Qiqi shook his head and sighed, "It's hard to be a man, and it's even harder to be a man from a family."

Zhang Wu and others saw her talking happily with the gangsters, and they hated and anxious in their hearts.They wished they could step forward and cover Huo Qiqi's mouth.

Unfortunately, they didn't even have the strength to move their fingers.

"If I make another bold guess, you shouldn't be as simple as gangsters, right?" Huo Qiqi said lightly, "Or is it that you are the only one who is special among gangsters?"

The third child's eyes flickered for a moment, and he stared at Huo Qiqi coldly and replied, "Young Master Huo Qiqi, did someone tell you that people who are too smart will die faster. You are thinking too much."

"Okay, just think I'm overthinking." Huo Qiqi readily admitted his mistake.

After staring at her for a while, the third child turned around and looked outside.

The sound of fierce fighting in the front yard had gradually diminished at this moment.

Suddenly, a burst of noisy voices slowly approached Huo Qiqi's courtyard.

"Watch it tight." The third child once again told his family.

A few gangsters agreed sparingly, and then heard the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open, and then a group of people hurried in.

"Brother, how is it?" The third child asked standing by the door.

Seeing how cautious he was, Huo Qiqi put on a faint smile.

"More than a dozen brothers died. Where's Huo Qiqi?"

"It's inside."

"I heard from the second child that Huo Qiqi is a cunning person, so be careful."

"Because of Ruanjinsan, she can't afford to play tricks."

"Listen up, people inside, release Mr. Huo Qiqi, the officials and the imperial physician." Zhu Quanming's voice sounded outside, but there was a trill in his voice, which sounded a little funny, "You are already surrounded."

"Damn it, take us for fools." The third child kicked the door and said angrily.

"Sixth prince, people are here, if you have the ability, you can break in and take them away. However, don't blame me for not reminding you, the swords in our brothers' hands have no eyes. If you are not careful, the sword in your hand will accidentally hurt Huo Qi Young master, that would be no fun." The bandit leader said with a big laugh.

"What do you want?" Li Yuanbai asked lightly.

"Brothers want all the food and silver stored in the post station. Anyway, Mr. Huo Qiqi is a cornucopia. It's a big deal. The sixth prince will ask Mr. Huo Qi to get you some money afterwards." The third child said with a sneer .

Huo Qiqi...

When did she become a cornucopia, why didn't she know?
"Half. I will give you half of the money and food, and you must ensure that everyone in the house is safe." Li Yuanbai said coldly.

"Did the sixth prince make a mistake? Do you think you still have the confidence to negotiate terms with us?" the bandit leader asked with a big smile.

"What if the prince says no?" Li Yuanbai seemed to be irritated by the other party, and his attitude suddenly changed.

The third child was taken aback, he didn't expect Huo Qiqi to guess correctly.Li Yuanbai really would rather give up her than keep the food and money.

In this way, there are so many of them, but they are passive.

The bandit leader and the third child suddenly regretted it. If they had known that Li Yuanbai was so ruthless, they shouldn't have gathered everyone in this yard!

"If we injure Mr. Huo Qi by mistake, isn't the sixth prince afraid that he won't be able to explain to the emperor and Duke Huguo after returning to Beijing?" The third child asked unwillingly.

"Sixth prince, you are too ruthless." Huo Qiqi opened his mouth and shouted loudly in the room, "Silver and food are the consultation fees I earned alone, and I have the final say. Let me tell you, don't think that The sky is high and the emperor is far away, so he can borrow a knife to kill people and monopolize my things."

"Shut up." Li Yuanbai seemed annoyed.

"Li Yuanbai, you have no conscience. You forgot how you promised the emperor and my grandfather that no matter what happens, you will protect me. So that's how you protect me? When I return to the capital, I must go to the emperor Sue there." Huo Qiqi shouted.

"How about my prince go in and change her?" Li Yuanbai seemed agitated.

The bandit leader and the third child looked at each other, and they both saw the smile in each other's eyes.Sure enough, Li Yuanbai had deliberately pretended not to care about Huo Qiqi earlier.

As long as Li Yuanbai valued Huo Qiqi, they would be safe.

"Stop." Seeing Li Yuanbai appearing at the gate of the courtyard, the bandit leader and the third child suddenly panicked.

"Sixth Prince, is this treating us as fools?" The bandit leader sneered, "Sixth Prince is the God of War in Dayun Kingdom, and he once defeated a hundred with one. Brothers don't dare to do that kind of overthinking things."
